CHOOJIAHUI / OCTOBER 25, 1994 / CBOX / (JIAMING)

I. AM. BACK.

yesyes, finally! though it sounds i've been gone forever, no.

17/6
drove up to KL which was a long/tiring journey. about 4 hours? something like that. then stopped for break halfway. then continued driving. checked into Nikko Hotel Kuala Lumpur in the afternoon. we were admiring how big the king size bed was. and while watching tv we realised that it was two beds joined together. oh. took a taxi to KLCC (twin towers) which was quite nearby and walked back :\

18/6
went to KL plaza in the morning. and we were waiting for shops to open so we went to coffee bean and waited there. that was how early we were :D its the singaporean spirit, cant help it. then we were shopping and shopping. and walked to some other place and continued shopping. then when it was raining, we took a taxi to KLCC, again. and we went there to eat ice cream! (: and i think we went back after that.

19/6
had breakfast in the hotel. and started packing. then we checked out at about 12(?) and drove up to port dickson. then we checked into Avillion! it was nice, though i thought Club Med was nicer. because at Avillion, there was Bollywood filiming in progress -.- and the movie is 'Lara'. and for lunch we ate at the other restaurant(not the main one) because there were filming at the main one which is beside the adult/children pool. so since that place was occupied, we went for a swim later at the ADULT POOL. its the Cochin Pool. the way the notice was written: 'Cochin Pool - Adults only' makes it sound like a rated pool, according to my father :D okay. and after swimming we just slacked by the pool. AND THEN - this pool manager came and started chasing all the children out because the people finished filiming. and we were just lying on the chairs, pretending nothing was happening. but they didnt chase us because we finished swimming. but we left after that.

20/6
went to have breakfast at the main restaurant. and it turns out to be nicer and cheaper than the other one. hmph. okay. and we went to book sessions for tennis at 11am. but we were there at 11am and there was this family that booked it for 2hours - 10 to 12. and this woman comes and tell us there was a misunderstanding so she brought us to the gym instead. the gym was for adults only too. but i was on the treadmill and i dont think anyone cared. there wasnt much people anyway. then we went back at 1130 and the family decided to be done and let us play at 1130. so we went in and they were so nice! they even gave us tennis balls! and of course, we just whack and whack. but very funny though. then went back to the room to change to slippers and we went down to the beach. and i did kayaking with my dad while my sis and mom did the water bike. and we exchanged after that. of course, the kayaking was much faster and less tiring. the fun part was DOING the water sports. the UNfun part was coming out of the water, soaked in yucky water with sand all over you. especially when i was wearing a dri-fit shirt (from tennis). the sand gets stucked in the holes. UGHHH. at night, i started on The Time Traveler's Wife since my sis just finished reading it.

21/6
woke up early. went to eat breakfast and drove off! yay. back to singapore.

i love the trip! and i cant wait to go back to school! next week! x)
